Handbook of the CollectionsRevised and Expanded Edition
The encyclopedic collections of the Princeton University Art Museum comprise more than 97,000 objects ranging from ancient to contemporary art. This essential guide features more than 450 of the Museum’s best-loved and most important works—including Chinese bronzes and calligraphy, Roman sculptures and mosaics, Maya ceramics, African beadwork and sculpture, old master prints and drawings, European and American paintings, drawings, and sculpture, and outstanding examples of photography—all beautifully illustrated and accompanied by informative texts. An introduction by Director James Steward offers a brief history of the Museum from its origins in the 1750s to today. Available exclusively at the Museum Store.
